This old open-air Colonial house takes full advantage of the wonderful views which surround it. With Christo to one side and the Botanical Gardens to the other, it’s easy to see why so many people kick back and relax in the beauty of this roof-less wander.

Charmingly decorated with colourful umbrellas, mood lighting and multi-coloured lanterns, this bar is as good in the day as it is at night. The chilled vibe attracts a relaxed clientele and the impressive cocktail list keeps BarChick coming back for more.

We drank Strawberry Mojitos until we began chatting to the wildlife. This place is a small spot of tranquility in the busy city.
